Alfacon Solutions released video demonstrating the Alfacon Extendable Conveyor. The extendable conveyor maximizes the efficiency of shipping door operations. Safe, easy to operate, and very compact, it minimizes operator and forklift travel at shipping doors. Adjustable to suit operator preferred heights, the Extendable is an asset to any distribution warehouse, cross-dock operation, courier terminal, or shipping facility. The Alfacon Extendable Gravity Conveyor is a simple and affordable solution designed to increase loading/unloading operations.

When not in use, the 5 section Alfacon Extendable Conveyor stows away, occupying less than 15′ x 3′ of floor space. Extended to its full reach, the conveyor transforms into a 50′ declining roller conveyor into the trailer and ready for use. Additionally, the Alfacon Extendable is suited for small courier dock level vans to full size 53’ linehaul trailers.
